Head coach Jimbo Fisher and the Texas A&M Aggies are slated to miss a bowl game for the first time since 2008. The Aggies (3-7, 1-6) are likely to finish last in the SEC West after being predicted to finish second.
Many media members projected Texas A&M to jump into the same class as Georgia and Alabama, but that has not happened.
Texas A&M has had a notable amount of turmoil this season. The Aggies suspended multiple players and have relied heavily on a number of talented freshmen. Texas A&M finished with the No. 1 recruiting class of 2022, but all that talent did not translate to wins in the SEC.
Texas A&M’s offense has been very disappointing. The Aggies have not scored more than 31 points in a game all season. Texas A&M also suffered an embarrassing defeat to Appalachian State early in the season.
What is next for Texas A&M? Will the Aggies retain Jimbo Fisher, who has a massive buyout? Fisher has done another solid job on the recruiting trail with the class of 2023. However, the Aggies could see a number of their talented players hit the transfer portal this offseason.
Here’s what college football Twitter thinks of Texas A&M:
All that talent to end up missing a bowl game
Texas A&M has lost 6 in a row with one of the most talented rosters in CFB…They have 3 wins and 2 of those came in games they were outgained by very avg. teams but won anyways…However, Jimbo only has 9 years left on that deal so you'll be ok

What do the Aggies do now?
In worst-case disaster scenarios for Texas A&M I still never fathomed them missing a bowl game

The worst preseason prediction of them all
Desmond Howard’s College Football Playoff prediction was questionable at best when the season started. Howard’s only pick that still looks decent is Michigan.
Don’t let the Dawg’s win distract you from the fact that @DesmondHoward picked Texas A&M to win the CFP National Championship.

Not any pretty stats for Texas A&M
It is not out of the realm of possibility today that UConn and Rice become bowl eligible while Texas A&M eliminates itself from making one.

Texas A&M has now lost six consecutive games.
The Aggies are No. 4 in 247 Talent Composite.
The rest of the top five has three combined losses in 2022.
I don't even know how to process that.

Will this be the craziest offseason in the transfer portal yet?
Texas A&M is 2-9 in its last 11 games against FBS teams.

I want to clear the air. I was benched for wearing arm sleeves—something that my teammates and opponents wear frequently for protection. I apologize to my teammates and fans and looking forward to getting back on the field.
Much Love!#GigEm #AggieFootball
